←Prev   Psalms 33 as rendered by/in  Next→ 


33:1  Shout joyfully to the Lord, you righteous. The praise of the upright is beautiful.
33:2  Thank the Lord with a lyre. Make music for him with the ten-stringed harp.
33:3  Sing to him a new song. Play skillfully and shout praises.
33:4  Yes, the word of the Lord is right, and everything he does is trustworthy.
33:5  He loves righteousness and justice. The mercy of the Lord fills the earth.
33:6  By the word of the Lord the heavens were made. By the breath of his mouth he made the whole army of stars.
33:7  He gathers the water of the sea into a heap. He puts the depths into storehouses.
33:8  Let all the earth fear the Lord. Let all the inhabitants of the world revere him.
33:9  For he said, “Let it be,” and it was! He gave a command, and there it stood.
33:10  The Lord wrecks the plan of the nations. He hinders the intentions of the peoples.
33:11  The plan of the Lord stands forever. The intentions of his heart stand through all generations.
33:12  How blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord, the people he chose to be his possession.
33:13  From heaven the Lord observes. He sees all the children of Adam.
33:14  From his throne room he looks at all the inhabitants of earth.
33:15  He alone is the one who shapes all their hearts. He understands all their deeds.
33:16  No king is saved by the great size of his army. No hero is rescued by his great strength.
33:17  You cannot rely on a horse to save you. Its great strength will not deliver you.
33:18  Look, the eye of the Lord is on those who fear him, on those who wait for his mercy.
33:19  He will deliver their souls from death. He keeps them alive in famine.
33:20  Our souls wait for the Lord. He is our help and our shield.
33:21  Yes, in him our heart rejoices, because we trust in his holy name.
33:22  May your mercy, O Lord, be on us, even as we wait confidently for you.
